What are some of the hidden signifiers about the private school systems in Sweden? 

Is China really socialist? And what did the pandemic teach us about the Nordic welfare models?

These are some of the questions I discuss in this podcast.

The following is a salvaged file of a discussion I had in the summer of 2021 with two friends,Rory from Spain and Arman in Canada whom I always love having deep and engaging conversations with. 

At the time, I had been researching on urban planning and sacredness. So I shared a link to an interesting article I came across. We decided to hop on to zoom and exchange ideas and thoughts that run through our minds tapping into realtime exploration of possibilities. The key touch points here would be how cities are designed, what makes parts of cities sacred and a slight tangent into stitching together urban planning and sound. 

There are many kindled individuals that curate the realities of our future and especially in this digital day and age. Rohan is one of the most active educators that I know. He has a deep passion for astronomy, a brilliant science-communicator, has been in several experienced positions within the education industry claiming many awards under his title. More notably known for starting the Dubai-Science festival together with his wife Lara. I catch up with him to probe into his curious mind. All mix-media photographs during transitions have been provided by Rohan, which is one of many talents that he has.

This channel has silently sailed through during the pandemic and I'm excited to pour out some of that cognitive brewing that's happened in between. From curious sense-makers to creative entrepreneurs that are embarking on this built knowledge, I engage with what is emergent on the surface with topics such as design, education and sustainability.

Salwan Diwan and Eden Basic shed some light on their youth and how it was growing up in a Swedish society. As adults, now they are building strong bonds with those who go through similar experiences as they had when they came as refugees.

I suppose the only well-suited slogan is 'All lives matter'
